1 Corinthians 9:24
"Know ye not that those who run in a race all run, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain it."

Crazy as it may sound, to those of you that know me, I walked my first 5K. Yes, I walked. I know. I know. I started running after the birth of my third child to get into shape, and truly never really stopped. Until now. I tore my meniscus and had surgery. I am better, but not well. I decided to do what I can do. Teach. So, all summer I trained my grandsons to run. I taught them how to use their arms. I taught them how to stay focused on the finish line. Well, Tuesday night they shined. Even though I made them take breaks, (so I could take pictures) so, their lungs could recover, they still had a great time. Children's lung are much smaller, and they can't run as fast as they will in their thirties. Nevertheless, run they did. I am so proud of them.
Now, here is the rest of the story. My friend registered us. I procrastinated. I wanted to run. Unbeknownst to me, I was sabotaging myself. Why? Because I couldn't see. I was too close to the forest to see the tree. I could only see me running. My friend suggested we take the grandsons and make it about them. That was something I'd not thought of. She saw the run from different eyes. Sometimes, we need another set of eyes.
So today, I want to be a legacy leaver not just a line crosser. When my race is done it is souls I desire to have won, not medals that will be left behind.

ACTION STEP: Ask a friend or pastor or a coach what you might not be seeing. A different set of eyes can often open up a whole new world. We were all blind to our Savior until someone opened our eyes. It is that way in other areas of our life as well. Perhaps, this year you can help someone by sharing the eye opening revelation of Jesus.
